360-Degree Iris Burns Following Conductive Keratoplasty.

PURPOSE The authors report a case with multiple iris burns after conductive keratoplasty to correct hyperopia. METHODS Case report. RESULTS A 52-year-old woman with hyperopia had a previous conductive keratoplasty procedure and underwent a conductive keratoplasty re-treatment 6 months later. Postoperatively, she presented with 360-degree iris burns in both eyes that were correlated with the corneal conductive keratoplasty scars. In addition, specular microscopy revealed decreased endothelial cell density for both eyes. CONCLUSIONS This is the first reported case of iris burns associated with conductive keratoplasty.
